Hello friends! I have a fun Birthday themed card to share with you, featuring the sweet critters from Garden Party and the balloon bouquet from Balloon Buddies. I am always in need of Birthday cards, and had so much fun creating this festive slimline scene.

To begin, I cut a piece of Bristol smooth cardstock to 3 1/2 X 8 1/2″. I used a cloud stencil along with Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide ink to create the blue cloudy sky. I also blended some Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide inks to create the grassy area along the bottom. I then die cut a white scalloped slimline frame using the Gallery Frame #5 Die,  attaching it with foam tape to add dimension.

Next, I stamped, colored with Copic markers, and die cut images from the following sets:

Garden Party/ Coordinating Dies

Balloon Buddies/ Coordinating Dies

Once all the colored images were die cut, I arranged them onto my card, adhering with foam tape on some for a bit of dimension. To complete my card, I stamped the music notes from Party Parade and sentiment from Garden Party in jet black ink, and attached the card front to a 3 1/2 x 8 1/2″ white card base.

Thanks so much for stopping by! I’ll see you next time, friends!
